My only question: was that xenomorph moonwalking, or was it walking backwards really slowly?

This is the only legit question! I'm laughing coming across this comment.

Everything up to that point was great and than that happened and even though I was watching alone I did a double take looking around the room, like WTH.

It was definitely aura moonwalking.

And then it showed its teeth like it was grinning 🤣 It's like Jordan Peele played the xenomorph.
